Thanks vertrkr. I looked in owners manual, but was unable to find a part number. The main reason for asking is a saw a Jeep owner on other post state he bought filters from dealer with VIN and they where smaller then one on his Jeep. Just wanted to have a part number to compare with what they give me.

I checked the Jeep manual and was very surprised not to find it. 600+ pages and they seem to leave out the most basic information. There is more space dedicated to warnings about things everybody who is old enough to read "should" already know before being allowed to sit in a car, no less drive one.

Vertrkr, Thanks again for the part number, that was it. Just changed oil this morning, and I must say one of the more easier oil changes out there. The access hole for drain plug and filter was perfect. Oil drained perfect and did not spill behind shield. It did get close at the end to getting behind shield and hitting sway bar, but it just missed. If car is up to high in front I'm sure it will hit sway bar and splash oil behind shield.
Two things I did notice is that gasket got stuck to housing. I know your always suppose to check, but in 25 years this was the first time. Must be the design of the filter for it to pull off so easy. The other strange thing was when refilling with oil I started getting a gurgling sound coming from air filter. Once a slowed down the the rate of fill it stopped. I removed air filter to check for any oil and it was oil free. Drain Plug and Oil Filter where not over tightened like some others have reported. The recommended 7 quarts brought it to the bottom of the hash marks. Ended up going with 7.5 quarts which brought it 3/4 of the way up the hash marks.
